Pear and 5 Spice Spritzer

Pear and 5 Spice Spritzer

Reducing waste in the kitchen is easy when you have a delicious cocktail on the other side of it! Instead of discarding the juice from a can of pears down the drain, combine it with a bit of Chinese 5 Spice and sugar for a unique cocktail you won’t forget.

2 oz Wheyward Spirit 

3/4 oz fresh squeezed lemon juice 

2 1/4 oz Pear and 5 Spice Syrup 

Club soda

Combine Wheyward Spirit, lemon juice, and syrup into a shaker with ice and shake to combine. Serve in a highball glass over crushed ice and top with club soda to taste. Garnish with star anise.

‍

*Pear and 5 Spice Syrup

1 cup pear juice, drained from a can of pears in juice 

1 cup white sugar 

2 tsp Chinese 5 Spice blend

Add all ingredients to a small pot on medium heat. Cook until just bubbling while stirring and allow to cool on the stove. Strain through cheesecloth or a fine mesh strainer and store in an airtight container.

The Vieux Ca-Whey is a spirited take on the classic Vieux Carré of New Orleans that combines new and old for a fresh take on the bold, spirit-forward drink with herbal, citrus, smoke and berry notes.

Vieux Ca-Whey

A bright, citrus-forward spritz that balances fresh lime, handcrafted grapefruit syrup, and a touch of Aperol for a soft, sunset-hued finish. Built on Wheyward Spirit's smooth, versatile base and topped with bubbles, it's a refreshing, easy-drinking cocktail for effortless enjoyment.

Golden Hour Paloma

We all love a glass of bubbly, but nobody likes pouring flat champagne down the drain! Our upcycled flat champagne syrup pairs beautifully with our velvety smooth Wheyward Spirit and fresh lemon to create a unique twist on the classic Bee's Knees cocktail.

Bubbly Bee's Knees

For the most smooth and sippable Wheyward Spirit experience, add a twist of lemon to your glass and relax as the spirit turns into a delicious blend of lemon, vanilla, and custard notes. Top it off with some seltzer for a bubbly treat.

Wheyward on the Rocks

A Dirty Shirley is the cocktail of the summer, and it’s even better with a Wheyward Spirit twist!

This quintessential mocktail with an adult twist is a refreshing and vibrant warm weather staple, and an elevated upgrade from a standard soda mixer with some added nostalgia and a beautiful pink color.

The Wheyward Shirley

An elevated version of our classic Wheyward Martini. The addition of Yellow Chartreuse pairs with the herbal notes in the dry vermouth and Wheyward Spirit to make a velvety smooth cocktail oozing with sophistication.

‍

Velvety Smooth

Our four-ingredient Alpine Daiquiri is a flavorful and bespoke twist on the classic cocktail with the addition of Falernum, a liqueur with a Caribbean flair.


Alpine Daiquiri

The Wheyward Mudslide is a rich, creamy, and utterly decadent cocktail! The vanilla and oaky notes of Wheyward Spirit pair perfectly with the richness of the coffee liqueur and sweetness of the Irish cream for a cocktail treat you won’t want to skip.


Wheyward Mudslide

This cocktail is not just a drink; it’s a homage to Caravaggio’s "Basket of Fruit”. Each sip is like a brushstroke, lending the rich, dark sweetness of figs with the tartness of pomegranate, all grounded by Wheyskey’s warmth. The egg white adds a smooth, painterly texture, reminiscent of the way light plays across Caravaggio’s fruits.
